Chapter 666: Luo Shen Fu (II)
What made Ma Laocai depressed was that Zhu Lao and the others were actually in the box, if they were in the hall, seeing this situation, he could still turn around and leave immediately, but now in full view, he can't just pull his legs and leave! If you really do this, it will undoubtedly hurt Zhu Lao, so can people still help in the future?
Ay! I also blamed myself for not asking the waiter just now, there were a few people in the box!
Seeing that everyone in the house was looking at him, Ma Laocai could only walk in and greet the people in the house one by one.
To say, there are people present who don't know Ma Laocai's character, but there is a way to reach out and not hit smiling people, although everyone is very disdainful of Ma Laocai, but when people say hello, they still have to give some face to respond.
After saying hello, Ma Laocai said a few words of greeting, and then directly said what he meant.
In fact, Ma Laocai got the news of "Luo Shenbin", and everyone present has already learned about it, and they also know that after Ma Laocai got something, he went directly to the capital, thinking that he would use it for appraisal or sale, and now he will use it for appraisal for Zhu Lao, it seems that the situation is not optimistic!
A friend wants to ask, how do you know Ma Laocai's itinerary so clearly? Of course, this is the result of Ren Qiang's wide spread, and finally there is a chance to take revenge, of course Ren Qiang must firmly seize it.
Zhu Lao was also very curious about Ma Laocai's "Luo Shen Bin", and when he learned of Ma Laocai's intention, he asked everyone to clean up the table, because "Luo Shen Bin" was too long, and a table could not be placed, so everyone could only look at it little by little.
Everyone present has a good eye, so when I saw the handwriting of the text. And I was amazed in my heart, because of the words on it. Compared with the real thing, it is not only similar in shape. It's even more like it, and if it's a fake, it's incredible.
However, if you want to say that no one must imitate the real and fake, it is not necessarily, as an expert in calligraphy and painting appraisal, Zhu Lao, who knew that there were many literati in the Ming and Qing dynasties, imitating Zhao Mengfu's calligraphy and painting is very similar, among which he is the most impressive. It is a calligraphy work by Chen Qian imitating Zhao Mengfu that he encountered when he was working in the museum before.
This Chen Qian is a native of the Ming Dynasty, the word Shiqian, a native of Ne'an, and a native of Gusu. Living in Beijing, he can write books, imitate Zhao Mengfu, and is charming and lovely. When dyed ancient paper is disguised as Zhao Shu, it is impossible to distinguish. Painting also learns from Zhao, boasting and considerate. Commentators said that learning Zhao painting "reached six or seven points of wonder".
In other words, if it is a particularly exquisite work by Chen Qian imitating Zhao Mengfu, it can be done with the fake.
The work that Zhu Lao encountered at that time was like this, and with his eyesight, he couldn't tell that it was an imitation. In the end, it was only from the stamps and paper that I saw the problem. Therefore, it is still very difficult to identify calligraphy and painting, and sometimes the authenticity of a work is identified. You have to be thorough.
With that experience, although Zhu Lao felt that in terms of using a pen and other aspects. This work is supposed to be genuine, but I want to be sure. It is also necessary to carefully observe several other aspects until it is correct before we can determine the authenticity of something.
Everyone slowly looked at the back, saw the part of the seal and the collection seal, and from everyone's eyesight, there should be no problem with these four seals, but the tail of the tail is not the real work of Zhu Zhishan, which makes it difficult for everyone.
If you want to say that this is the real thing, then what do you say? Could it be that someone deliberately falsified the original? It's not impossible to say, but in the minds of the ancients, this kind of thing is really incredible.
But you have to say that this is an imitation, in their opinion, in terms of the characteristics of calligraphy and seals, it should indeed be the authentic work of Zhao Mengfu, but in the case of many imitations of Zhao Mengfu, you have to say that there is no imitation so realistic, and it is not so certain.
In fact, the most important thing is that a few people present are not so confident in their eyesight, and the best solution to this situation is to invite a number of calligraphy and painting appraisal experts to participate in the appraisal, and finally discuss a result together.
After appreciating the work in front of him, Zhu Lao asked: "Shopkeeper Ma, have you asked others to appraise this work?" ”
Ma Laocai subconsciously said: "No, no!" You're always number one. ”
When he finished speaking, he secretly said in his heart, it's broken! In case Old Man Zhu knew that I had gone to the capital for appraisal before, wouldn't that be the end?
Thinking of this, Ma Laocai was apprehensive, but after thinking about it, he felt that these people present didn't even know that he had bought the "Luo Shen Fu" in front of him, so how could they know that they had gone to the capital?
Thinking about it like this, Ma Laocai immediately put his mind at ease and waited for the appraisal results given by Zhu Laocai.
But the reality is not as Ma Laocai thought, because of Ren Qiang's relationship, everyone present knows his itinerary clearly. Therefore, hearing Ma Laocai say this, everyone felt even more disdain and disgust for him in their hearts, and in addition, there was a trace of anger.
Why are people angry? As mentioned earlier, since Ma Laocai went to the capital, but he wanted to take things to Zhu Lao for identification, it must be because the results were not ideal, if the experts in the capital said that it was genuine, why did you Ma Laocai need to see the results given by the experts in the Wucheng antique industry?
Although it is not that the experts in the capital are necessarily better than their eyesight, how could Ma Laocai not find a famous expert when he went to the capital to appraisal? Or whether he sells it to someone else or goes directly to the auction company, how can the other party not ask one or several heavyweights to help identify such a valuable thing?
And no matter what the situation is, even Zhu Lao felt that the other party's eyesight and experience would at least not be worse than him, and it was very possible to be higher than him.
And this kind of character says that something is wrong, there will be a reason for everything, and it is impossible to say that the thing is not true without giving any reason.
Ma Laocai concealed such important information, how could the few people present not be angry!
As for the reason, it's easy to say.
If they don't know that the experts in the capital think that this thing is wrong, and rashly say that the thing is true, then not to mention that their reputation will definitely be damaged in the end, and then Ma Laocai will sell the thing to others based on their conclusions, and the buyer will find out that it is a fake, and finally he will definitely come to them to settle accounts.
After all, this is not tens of thousands of things, but tens of millions of national treasure-level cultural relics, if they really say that the fake is true, it will be a shame for their lives.
Therefore, when Zhu Laocai saw that Ma Laocai was lying about this kind of thing, he was angry, so he sentenced Ma Laocai to death.
Although several people present were particularly disgusted with Ma Laocai in their hearts, they couldn't see any difference from before on the surface, and Ma Laocai didn't know that he would have such strict consequences if he said that he panicked once, and in the end, he asked him to wait for Zhu Lao to say "powerless".
Therefore, there are some things in the world that are wrong, in fact, they are caused by the asymmetry of information on both sides, and when it comes to Ma Laocai, in addition to the asymmetry of information, his insincerity is also a very important factor.
Ma Laocai waited for a result that made him despair, but he didn't give up, and then went to find a few experts to help with the identification, but what he didn't know was that the process of asking Zhu Lao to help with the appraisal had been spread all over the antique world in Wucheng, and even some people in the surrounding area heard the rumors.
In this case, of course, the results were consistent with what Zhu Lao gave, and those experts all said that they could not give a definite result.
Disappointment again and again, Ma Laocai was disheartened, and decided not to waste any more time on this kind of thing, and the problem he was most concerned about was how to transfer things.
Ma Laocai also knew that this calligraphy had been spread in the Wucheng antique world, but the method he adopted was to cast a wide net to catch more fish, as long as it was a customer he knew, he called to inquire, and the farthest was to Xiangjiang.
Some of these people have already heard the rumors and directly refused, while others have expressed great interest and expressed their best to come.
However, maybe it's because he usually does too many bad things, and there have been a lot of accidents during the period, either someone came to inquire about the situation with friends in the Wucheng antique world, and then said that he couldn't come, or he was seen to have a problem with Bawei, and even more, he also met a liar, if he hadn't reacted quickly, he was almost succeeded by the scammer.
The things have not been sold for several months, and seeing that his business has also been greatly affected, Ma Laocai gritted his teeth, yes! He didn't believe that he would have a chance to sell the painting in the future, so he put it away now.
Ma Laocai came back to his senses and said to Chu Chen with a smile: "Chu Shao, this tail is not right, and it can't be said that things must be wrong, right?" ”
"So what are the chances of this happening? Moreover, I think there should be a lot of people who see this "Luo Shen Fu", right? Chu Chen asked with a smile.
Ma Laocai smiled and said, "Chu Shao, haven't you read the text yet, what is going on, you can take a look first, how about it?" ”
Chu Chen did not refuse, not to mention that in addition to Zhu Zhishan's tail, the other two collection seals, he can basically identify them as genuine works, in addition, the pen of the text, he also thinks it is very interesting, at first glance, it is almost the same as the pen he saw in Liu Lao before, such a high-level imitation, to be honest, he really has never seen it.
So, Chu Chen took out a magnifying glass and looked at it carefully, and when he saw it, he was suddenly a little shocked in his heart. Because with his eyesight, he couldn't see that the handwriting in front of him could be a forgery, which really made him feel too incredible.
"Is there really someone who can imitate Zhao Mengfu's words vividly?"
Chu Chen muttered to himself, but a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he thought excitedly: "It can't be that I have gone into a misunderstanding, this is the real thing at all, right?!" (To be continued......)
